The ABPS, whose International Committee is led by Bill Hedley, have just taken an initiative to encourage exhibitors to exhibit in more than one class.
The idea is to present a ‘Multi-Class’ Certificate to exhibitors who have achieved at least Vermeil in five or more classes and the first certificates were awarded at Stampex in February 2019.
The ABPS’s aim is to encourage exhibitors to try their hand in more than one philatelic discipline. By awarding the certificate at the level of the lowest of the five medals achieved, they also want to give people an incentive to improve their exhibits and thereby raise the level of their certificate.
This is not at all exclusively for UK exhibitors. Indeed the APBS welcome entrants from all countries at its national exhibitions. Details are at www.abps.org/exhibiting.

We proudly announce the first participation in NOTOS 2021 Court of Honour: On 6 February, the Philatelic and Postal Museum, Athens, sent us their written confirmation to our invitation to attend with the exhibit we had requested: the seven printing plates of the Large Hermes Heads of 1861, the first Greek stamps ever issued. It will be the first time that the “Magnificent Seven” will be presented to the public together.
A special webpage dedicated to the seven printing plates, which includes an outline of their story along with their photos, is uploaded on the exhibition website (here). Thus, the visitors to the website have the opportunity to enjoy the masterpieces of the French engraver Désiré-Albert Barre.
Friends of NOTOS 2021, we are asking you to visit the exhibition website (hps.gr/notos2021) frequently. There are a lot of pleasant surprises coming up.
Also, feel free to contact us at any time at notos2021@hps.gr.
